Most of yinz here probably already know this but me and my buddy just got a couple Garrett ace 350's and being very new to this hobby have discovered that being within 30-35 ft of each other with both machines on sends them into overdrive making all sorts of noises like angry birds. This happened before but we didn't catch on right away and I thought they were malfunctioning. All is good now. I wonder if this happens with all detectors or like detectors with the same freq's or just the same make and models with the same freq
 
Happens all the time. It's normal. I remember years ago me and my brother were newbies. When his machine beeped so did mine. Sounded like a coin. But when my machine beeped his did not. So you never know. You can reduce the sensitivity or adjust the frequency shift for those that have it to help.
 
Yeah, I was nugget hunting this past Winter and a hunting buddy of mine was using his MXT, his friend was using a T2 and I had my Scorpion. Man, we couldn't get anywhere near each other for several yards! Talk about interference! All of our machines were goin' nuts if we got too close to each other!:rofl:
